+ + +

To enhance visibility and provide deeper insights, the DDS dashboards can be + integrated with IBM Z OMEGAMON Web UI dashboards.

+

About this task

+

IBM Z OMEGAMON provides its own Grafana plugin with detailed dashboards. This + integration seamlessly allows users to navigate from DDS dashboards to OMEGAMON + dashboards, preserving context such as object names.

+

Follow the steps below to enable and configure the integration between DDS and + OMEGAMON dashboards:

+
+

Procedure

  1. + While installing the DDS Sample Dashboards, on the IBM RMF page, go to + DDS Sample Dashboards section and select the + Link with IBM Z OMEGAMON Web UI dashboards button to + create links to the OMEGAMON dashboards. +
    +
  2. + Go to Home > Connections > Data sources > IBM RMF for z/OS. +
  3. + On the IBM RMF for z/OS page, go to OMEGAMON (optional) + section. Enter the OMEGAMON data source name in the Data + Source field that reads from the same sysplex as the RMF data + source. +
    This ensures consistent data visibility across both plugins.
    +
    +
  4. + Once the integration is configured, the DDS dashboards will display interactive + links. In Address space-related tables, click Address + space name to open a new browser tab showing detailed metrics in the + OMEGAMON dashboard. +
